Pros

Compensation should be very competitive when you compared to similar position in the area. Discount stock purchase plan Quarterly outings (although it;s been cut down a lot lately)

Cons

Never ending workload Very aggressive timeline on projects Long work hours Young company culture, everyone is very competitive and aggressive Expect immediate ramp up on responsibility when you start Pretty hard to get work/life balance

Pros

The benefits are nice, and the work is engaging. Be glad you're on the PayPal side of the house, and not eBay.

Cons

There's a lot of management here, making the ability to get things done quickly nearly impossible. Everyone wants their hands in the projects, and projects tend to suffer from "too many cooks". Far too often good ideas die on the vine, because the many layers of management can't come to an agreement in a timely manner. The benefits/perks offered to employees in Omaha are far below those offered to workers in San Jose. Omaha employees are often left feeling like the "unwanted children" at a family reunion.
